2 families compete for $10,000

Valerie Bertinelli hosts the new series. In each hour-long episode, two families compete in a culinary face-off. Three rounds of challenges will "test their cooking skills, recipes and family dynamics," according to Food Network. Challenges will range from "Sunday suppers and delicious leftover dinners, to taco fiestas and over-the-top breakfasts."

During the first round of the competition, each team will create a dish that represents who they are as a family.

To add a little curve ball for the competitors, each team will then have to eliminate one of its own members before round 2. Upping the ante for the final round, each family will have to eliminate a member from the opposing family.

One family will earn a $10,000 prize.

Phoenix residents likely know Larry White by his nickname, "LoLo," which is the name he uses on the local chain of restaurants he runs with his wife. Rasheedah is the operations manager for the six locations of LoLo's Chicken and Waffles.

White recently opened a Nashville-style hot chicken restaurant, Monroe's Hot Chicken, at 45 W. Jefferson St. in downtown Phoenix. The fast-casual restaurant serves a small menu of blindingly spicy chicken and chicken sandwiches.

Culinary prowess runs in White's blood. He is the grandson of Elizabeth White, who opened Mrs. White's Golden Rule Cafe in 1964. The iconic downtown restaurant continues to serve some of Phoenix's best soul food.

We're still waiting to hear when the episode will air and will keep you updated.
